The emotionally warmest picture of the church in the New Testament is the church as the family of God. In contrast to the idea of believers being members of an organization or society, Jesus thought of his followers as brothers and sisters. The family image is the most frequently used image of the church in the New Testament. It has real significance to not only what the church should mean to believers, but also to how they should behave towards others in the church. We'll explore this in today's message.
